Topic: gelbooru-style tilde searching

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

I'm curious if there's a method to group selections of tags together when using tilde-search.
For example, say I wanted an image that had cat or dog. I would do that by searching ~cat ~dog. But, say, I wanted of those cat-or-dog pictures to have either anthro or feral. I wouldn't be able to do that.
Gelbooru boorus, like Rule 34, have syntax for this: ( cat ~ dog) ( anthro ~ feral ).
Is this possible here on e621? If not, would it be possible to make it so?
There's a part of my brain saying "Yeah you'd have to rewrite the entire site to do that" so I'm not sure.

We don't have that functionality, no

Yeah you'd have to rewrite the entire site to do that

yes, implementing that functionality would require much more development time than we have

Alright, nevermind then. Just curious!
